The movie night episodes of Love Island USA have been ridiculously messy, but people have noticed that the editing might actually be hiding the real sequence of events.

Like every season before, movie night has been the messiest and most chaotic night in the Love Island USA villa so far. We thought the recoupling after Casa Amor was intense, but the altercation between the Islanders when both KC and Aniya’s clips were played was on a whole other level. But viewers have noted how eerily quiet the blowback to Sincere’s tapes was. In the clips, it was revealed that he was dishonest about how he had pursued bombshell Sol.

In the episode, this clip plays after the KC and Aniya ones, and left a very heavy tone in the villa. Sincere gave Melanie a long-winded apology, and Melanie cried. But eagle-eyed viewers have noticed that this actually might have happened before the whole KC situation.

The biggest piece of “evidence” is her tear-stained face, before she’s even supposed to have been crying. She’s also very quiet throughout the episode, and people think it’s because she’s too upset to talk.

With this in mind, it makes sense why Trinity was saying, “Why are you talking?” when Sincere was claiming there’s a “double standard” in the villa. It’s because she’d already seen his clips, and knew he had been hiding a lot of skeletons in his closet.

“That ruins so much to me as a viewer idk. We want to see like how things play out in the correct order,” one person said.

“I caught it on the first watch, but maybe I just had tunnel vision for Melanie. It was weird that Melanie was already crying, and over what? KC? That made no sense. Then someone pointed out this detail and everything clicked,” another person added.

We don’t have a direct confirmation from Love Island production, but it wouldn’t be the first time clips have been edited to create more drama.
